I Do Not Wish To Age Poem by Edwina Reizer

I Do Not Wish To Age



I do not wish to age, my love.
These old bones I wish to rise above.
I want them free to move with ease
as it is with the birds and bees.

I do not wish to change my ways
and discard my flimsy negligees.
I want to feel the fire again.
I want these things to never end.

I do not wish to cross that line
into that state that is unkind
to all of my female fantasies
and have to rely on just memories.

I do not wish to breathe alone.
But your breath, my love I do not own.
And all the aging that I'll do
will happen quickly if I'm not with you.
